Appears blurry and lacks color and substance. Perhaps a more colorful rock or some lighting tricks may have helped.

I have to edit my submission...your colors look better on my work monitor than my home monitor...guess I need to get one of them adjusted.

Colour balance looks way off.

Beautiful stone, but I'd prefer a lower angle of this shot, giving me less vertigo as I l look at it. Nice colors.

I love the colours, shame the focus seems just a tad soft. Nice all the same, good luck

I don't know if it's a result of the glare from the lighting, or a focusing issue, but the whole image is just a hair out of focus - enough to be noticed, not enough to convey 'intentional soft focus'. Also, you may wish to try toning down the red saturation.
